ikkeenjij36 Posted November 21, 2015 #7 Posted November 21, 2015 HP Capacity thread I opened, I tried today to change the values and nothing. maxdisks="20" internalportcfg="0xffff no luck Edit: i change both etc and etc.defaults Try using winscp,change values in /etc/syno.info and /etc.default/syno.info Always worked with my bare metal install. I currently have 24 disks configured.
sbv3000 Posted November 21, 2015 #8 Posted November 21, 2015 If you read the threads in detail you can see that you have to change 3 values as well as the max disks; esataportcfg usbportcfg internalportcfg The exact values will depend on your setup, these work for me for 16 disks esataportcfg="0x0000" usbportcfg="0x30000" internalportcfg="0xffff" my advice would be to setup XPE/DSM with a single drive, then mess with these settings to see if Storage Manager gives the right values and it reboots ok, then add your drives.
zkd Posted November 21, 2015 #9 Posted November 21, 2015 OK I managed 24 4TB HDDs any more and they start replacing disk 1. that's on 4.3 version. my setup:- LSI HBA with external JBOD enclosure that takes up to 45 HDDs, so I installed 12 on the server itself and then another 12 on the enclosure. I disabled all internal ports including eSATA but left the USB. I used the following method from stanza's post viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2028 when I got the 24 online I lost all USBs.
UNSC-117 Posted November 21, 2015 #10 Posted November 21, 2015 I got it working, if anyone needs help plz msg me. I will guide you
bladerider Posted November 22, 2015 Author #11 Posted November 22, 2015 Guys, i have successfully change the value by using WinSCP to browse and edit the /etc/synoinfo.conf Cheers
